Dantex develops 7-color UV inkjet printing system

Developed by the company’s Advanced Engineering team. PicoJet has a 350mm width and runs at up to 75m/min (250ft/min). PicoJet prints at 600 DPI at 2.5pl dot size. The LED final cure has a temperature controlled back-up roller for temperature-sensitive substrates. In addition, PicoJet incorporates static control, web cleaning and corona treatment for a wide substrate printing capability.

PicoJet has been built on a modular platform, offering a range of in-line finishing options, such as die-cutting, lamination, backslit/edge trim, slitting and rewinding. Dantex has also increased its software offering, with the introduction of full variable data functionality, which runs alongside Dantex’s press operating software.

PicoJet will be launched at Labelexpo Europe 2017, where Dantex will also display its PicoColour entry-level UV inkjet press in configurations demonstrating CMYK + white, varnish and chill roller printing. PicoColour now also incorporates full variable data.
